Six Brunton Place
is a Georgian Town House designed by
William Playfair, and built in 1825.
As an architect, I have gradually restored our home over the last few years, retaining its beautiful original features including a magnificent cantilevered stone staircase rising within the 30-ft high flagstone entrance hall, marble fireplaces and original cornices.
  We have decorated each guest room in a different rich warm authentic   Georgian colour.
 
  This, combined with contemporary lighting and a blend of both traditional   and modern furnishings makes each room individual in character.

In creating our Five Star Guest House we have integrated modern technology into the historic interior
.

A Little Piece of History.....
Frederick James Ritchie, one of Scotland's most famous clock-makers,who designed the mechanisms behind
the Capital's One o'Clock Gun and Time Ball, lived here at 6 Brunton Place for more than 40 years.
Ritchie
was also a close friend of telephone pioneer Alexander Graham Bell, and it is likely the pair discussed
inventions here at the house.
The unveiling of the plaque to commemorate Frederick James Ritchie who
designed the clock which fired the One o’ Clock Gun took place on
Monday 7th June 2010.

The clockmaker would have known about Greyfriars Bobby,
as his uncle Robert Ritchie who lived at 28 Candlemaker Row,
fed and sheltered the terrier.

After the plaque was unveiled by Edward McCarthy, who used to fire
the One o' Clock Gun, the One o' Clock Gun & Time Ball Association’s
piper Pipe Major Anderson played and the Association’s mascot Blue
fired his gun.

The plaque can be seen by the main door entrance of Six Brunton Place.
